articles menu item

The search facility for my blog still isn’t finished, so instead a new left menu entry called articles is up with a series of direct links to more…

site access

There may have been a bit of a problem accessing the server last night due to an IP address change. Things should look up a bit in the…

unexpected reboot

For no real reason (again) the system has rebooted. The server is now in a much cooler position than before, so it’s more annoying than ever. Ok, so…

more images: red rock canyon

From Red Rock Canyon, Nevada (March 2002). A much reduced selection compared to the previous album as I’m trying to find a way to properly blend the sky…

new images: cheddar gorge caves

Just to add to the previous Cheddar album on the {gallery} there is now one of the Caves in Cheddar Gorge.

gallery.minimal.cx back on-line

Ok, so the crashes may not have been so odd – my UPS might be dead 🙁 I (finally) made up a simple APC UPS cable, and built…

odd crash

The first crash since the extra RAM and h/drive were added. No clue just yet. The system went down just after 20:24 local time, and returned at 21:33,…

recent upgrades

In an attempt to speed things up, my Qube now has more RAM and a larger hard drive. The RAM has been bumped to 196KB total (from 96KB),…

mod_bandwidth implemented

Ok, so things ought to be a little smoother now, as it’s far less likely that any one download can fill my outgoing bandwidth. I was having lots…
